Hi Don;

Most likely you have lost your negative bias supply.  Pull the output
tubes and check for a negative voltage of about -40 to -50 between 
the chassis and pin 5 on both the tube sockets.  If it is there then 
you have other problems suck as leaky caps between the phase splitter
(12AT7) and the 6L6 grids.  There is also a 1K5 gris stopper resistor 
mounted directly on the 6L6 sockets.  These go open quite often and 
will cause the same effect.
